Oblasť technikyTechnical field
Predkladaný vynález sa týka použitia molekuly oligodeoxynukleovej kyseliny (ODN) na výrobu imunostimulačnej farmaceutickej kompozície a farmaceutického prípravku, ktorý také molekuly ODN obsahuje.The present invention relates to the use of an oligodeoxynucleic acid (ODN) molecule for the manufacture of an immunostimulatory pharmaceutical composition and a pharmaceutical composition comprising such ODN molecules.
Doterajší stav technikyBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Vakcíny môžu zachrániť viac životov (a zdrojov) ako akákoľvek iná lekárska intervencia (Nossal, 1998). Vďaka celosvetovým očkovacím programom sa drasticky znížila incidencia mnohých smrteľných ochorení. Aj keď toto platí pre celý rad ochorení, napríklad tuberkulózu, záškrt, čierny kašeľ, osýpky a tetanus, pre mnoho infekčných ochorení zahŕňajúcich väčšinu vírusových infekcií, ako je napríklad AIDS, neexistujú účinné vakcíny. Neexistujú účinné vakcíny pre ďalšie ochorenia, infekčné alebo neinfekčné, vyžadujúce si každým rokom životy miliónov pacientov, ktoré zahŕňajú maláriu a nádorové ochorenia. Nanajvýš rýchlo sa vyvíjajúce baktérie a mikroorganizmy rezistentné na antibiotiká volajú po alternatívnych liečebných postupoch, kde vakcíny sú logickou voľbou. Veľká potreba vakcín je konečne tiež ilustrovaná faktom, že infekčné ochorenia, skôr ako kardiovaskulárne choroby alebo nádorové ochorenia, alebo poranenia, zostávajú najväčšou príčinou úmrtia a neschopnosti na svete (Bloom a Widdus, 1998).Vaccines can save more lives (and resources) than any other medical intervention (Nossal, 1998). Worldwide vaccination programs have drastically reduced the incidence of many fatal diseases. Although this is true for a variety of diseases such as tuberculosis, diphtheria, whooping cough, measles and tetanus, there are no effective vaccines for many infectious diseases involving most viral infections, such as AIDS. There are no effective vaccines for other diseases, infectious or non-infectious, requiring the lives of millions of patients each year, including malaria and cancer. Extremely fast developing bacteria and antibiotic resistant microorganisms call for alternative treatments where vaccines are the logical choice. Finally, the great need for vaccines is also illustrated by the fact that infectious diseases, rather than cardiovascular diseases or cancer, or injuries, remain the largest cause of death and disability in the world (Bloom and Widdus, 1998).
Z imunologického pohľadu je dnes na poli vakcín najväčším problémom fakt, že tradičné vakcíny (a/alebo imunomodulačné zlúčeniny obsiahnuté v týchto prípravkoc)h sú navrhnuté, aby indukovali vysoké hladiny protilátok (Harrow a Lane (1988). Ale protilátky samy osebe nie sú účinné v prevencii veľkého množstva ochorení zahŕňajúcich väčšinu chorôb spôsobených vírusmi, intracelulámymi baktériami, určitými parazitmi a nádormi. Príklady takých ochorení sú, ale nie sú obmedzené na uvedený vírus HIV alebo Plasmodium spec. v prípade malárie. V počerných experimentálnych systémoch bolo preukázané, že v týchto prípadoch je zodpovedná bunková časť imunitného systému, zahŕňajúca T bunky, skôr ako časť protilátková. Preto sú potrebné nové inovačné technológie, aby sa prekonali obmedzenia konvenčných vakcín. Stred pozornosti musí byť položený na technológiách, ktoré spoľahlivo indukujú bunkový imunitný systém, vrátane antigén špecifických T buniek, ktoré rozpoznávajú molekuly na bunkách infikovaných patogénmi. Vakcíny sú ideálne navrhované tak, aby indukovali T bunky rozpoznávajúce choré a/alebo infikované bunky od buniek normálnych a súčasne protilátky sekrétované B bunkami rozpoznávajúcimi patogény v extracelulámych kompartmentoch.From the immunological point of view, the biggest problem today in the field of vaccines is that traditional vaccines (and / or immunomodulatory compounds contained in these preparations) are designed to induce high levels of antibodies (Harrow and Lane (1988). But the antibodies themselves are not effective. in the prevention of a large number of diseases involving most diseases caused by viruses, intracellular bacteria, certain parasites and tumors Examples of such diseases are, but are not limited to, said HIV or Plasmodium spec. in the case of malaria. In some cases, the cellular part of the immune system, including the T cells, is responsible rather than the antibody part, and therefore new innovative technologies are needed to overcome the limitations of conventional vaccines, the focus must be on technologies that reliably induce cellular immune ystem, including antigen-specific T cells, which recognize molecules on cells infected with pathogens. Vaccines are ideally designed to induce T cells recognizing diseased and / or infected cells from normal cells and at the same time antibodies secreted by B cells recognizing pathogens in the extracellular compartments.
Niektoré zavedené vakcíny obsahujú živé atenuované organizmy, kde existuje riziko zvratu k virulentnému divokému kmeňu. Toto môže mať životu ohrozujúce následky najmä pre imunnosuprimovaných hostiteľov. Vakcíny sú alternatívne podávané ako kombinácie antigénov odvodených od patogénov spolu so zlúčeninami, ktoré indukujú alebo zvyšujú imunitné odpovede proti týmto antigénom (tieto zlúčeniny sú bežne nazývané adjuvantné látky), pretože tieto podjednotkové vakcíny nie sú samy osebe všeobecne účinné.Some established vaccines contain living attenuated organisms where there is a risk of reversal to a virulent wild strain. This may have life-threatening consequences especially for immunosuppressed hosts. Vaccines are alternatively administered as combinations of pathogen-derived antigens together with compounds that induce or enhance immune responses against these antigens (these compounds are commonly called adjuvants) because these subunit vaccines are not generally effective in themselves.
Zatiaľ čo nie sú pochybnosti, že uvedené vakcíny sú cennými lekárskymi liečebnými prostriedkami, je nevýhodou, že vplyvom ich komplexity môžu byť vyvolané závažné vedľajšie účinky, napríklad k antigénom, ktoré sú obsiahnuté vo vakcíne vykazujúcej skríženú reaktivitu s molekulami exprimovanými bunkami očkovaných jedincov. Navyše je problematické splniť existujúce požiadavky regulačných autorít, napríklad Svetovej zdravotníckej organizácie (WHO), amerického Food and Drug Administration (FDA) a ich európskych náprotivkov, ktoré sa týkajú presnej špecifikácie zloženia vakcíny a mechanizmov indukcie imunity.While there is no doubt that these vaccines are valuable medical therapeutics, it is a disadvantage that due to their complexity, serious side effects can be induced, for example, to antigens that are contained in a vaccine showing cross-reactivity with molecules expressed by the cells of vaccinated individuals. In addition, it is difficult to meet existing requirements of regulatory authorities such as the World Health Organization (WHO), the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and their European counterparts regarding the precise specification of vaccine composition and immune-induction mechanisms.
Bunky prezentujúce antigén patria k vrodenému imunitnému systému, ktorý sa vyvinul ako prvá obranná línia hostiteľa, a ktorý obmedzuje infekciu skoro po expozícii mikroorganizmom (Hofmann et al., 1999). Bunky vrodeného imunitného systému rozpoznávajú vzory alebo relatívne nešpecifické štruktúry exprimované na ich cieľoch, skôr ako sofistikovanejšie, špecifické štruktúry, ktoré sú rozpoznávané adaptívnym imunitným systémom (Hoffmann et al., 1999). Príklady buniek vrodeného imunitného systému sú makrofágy a dendritické bunky, ale tiež granulocyty (napríklad neutrofily), prirodzené zabíjačské bunky a ďalšie bunky. Oproti tomu bunky adaptívneho imunitného systému rozpoznávajú špecifické antigénne štruktúry zahŕňajúce peptidy v prípade T buniek a peptidy rovnako tak ako trojrozmerné štruktúry v prípade B buniek. Adaptívny imunitný systém je špecifickejší a sofistikovanejší ako vrodený imunitný systém a zlepšuje sa po opakovanej expozícii danému patogénu/antigénu. Fylogenetický je vrodený imunitný systém oveľa starší a môže byť nájdený už pri veľmi primitívnych organizmoch. Ale vrodený imunitný systém je kritický počas iniciálnej fázy antigénnej expozície, pretože navyše k tomu, že bunky vrodeného imunitného systému (bunky APC) zadržujú patogény, tiež vybavujú bunky adaptívneho imunitného systému informáciami a teda spúšťajú špecifické imunitné odpovede vedúce na zbavenie sa votrelcov. Celkovo povedané majú bunky vrodeného imunitného systému a obzvlášť APC bunky kritickú úlohu počas indukčnej fázy imunitných odpovedí prostredníctvom a) zadržením pôvodcov infekcií pomocou rozpoznávacieho systému primitívnych vzorov, aAntigen-presenting cells belong to the innate immune system that developed as the first host defense line and that limits infection soon after exposure to microorganisms (Hofmann et al., 1999). Cells of the innate immune system recognize patterns or relatively non-specific structures expressed on their targets, rather than more sophisticated, specific structures that are recognized by the adaptive immune system (Hoffmann et al., 1999). Examples of cells of the innate immune system are macrophages and dendritic cells, but also granulocytes (e.g. neutrophils), natural killer cells, and other cells. In contrast, cells of the adaptive immune system recognize specific antigenic structures including peptides in the case of T cells and peptides as well as three-dimensional structures in the case of B cells. The adaptive immune system is more specific and sophisticated than the innate immune system and improves after repeated exposure to a given pathogen / antigen. Phylogenetic is the innate immune system much older and can be found in very primitive organisms. However, the innate immune system is critical during the initial phase of antigenic exposure because, in addition to the fact that the innate immune system cells (APCs) retain pathogens, they also provide the cells of the adaptive immune system with information and thus trigger specific immune responses leading to the elimination of intruders. In summary, cells of the innate immune system, and in particular APC cells, play a critical role during the induction phase of immune responses by (a) arresting infectious agents with a primitive pattern recognition system, and
b) vybavením buniek adaptívneho imunitného systému informáciami, čo vedie na špecifické imunitné odpovede a pamäte majúce za následok zbavenie sa vnikajúcich patogénov alebo ďalších cieľov (Roitt et al., 1998). Tieto mechanizmy môžu byť tiež dôležité na zbavenie sa alebo na zadržanie nádorových buniek.b) providing the cells of the adaptive immune system with information leading to specific immune responses and memories resulting in the release of emerging pathogens or other targets (Roitt et al., 1998). These mechanisms may also be important for the clearance or retention of tumor cells.
Ako je zmienené, rozpoznávajú bunky vrodeného imunitného systému vzory exprimované na ich príslušných cieľoch. Príklady sú lipopolysacharidy (LPS) v prípade Gram negatívnych baktérií, mykobakteriálne glykolipidy, lipoteichoové kyseliny Gram pozitívnych baktérií, manany kvasníc a dvjvláknové RNA vírusov (Hoffmann et al., 1999). Navyše môžu rozpoznávať štruktúry, ako sú napríklad narušené glykozylácie proteínov na nádorových bunkách.As mentioned, cells of the innate immune system recognize patterns expressed on their respective targets. Examples are lipopolysaccharides (LPS) for Gram negative bacteria, mycobacterial glycolipids, lipoteichoic acids Gram positive bacteria, mannan of yeast, and double-stranded RNA viruses (Hoffmann et al., 1999). In addition, they can recognize structures such as impaired protein glycosylation on tumor cells.
Nedávne nálezy opisujú DNA prvokov alebo nižších eukaryot ako ďalšie štruktúry rozpoznávané vrodeným (ale možno tiež adaptívnym) imunitným systémom cicavcov (a pravdepodobne väčšinou, ak nie všetkými stavovcami) (Krieg, 1966; Lipford et al., 1998).Recent findings describe DNA of protozoa or lower eukaryotes as other structures recognized by the innate (but possibly also adaptive) immune system of mammals (and probably by most, if not all vertebrates) (Krieg, 1966; Lipford et al., 1998).
Imunitný systém rozpoznáva nižšie organizmy zahŕňajúce baktérie pravdepodobne vďaka štrukturálnym a sekvenčným rozdielom medzi patogénom a hostiteľskou DNA. Cieľom sú obzvlášť krátke úseky DNA odvodené od non-stavovcov, alebo vo forme krátkych syntetických ODN obsahujúcich nemetylované cytozín-guanín dinukleotidy (CpG) v určitom kontexte báz (Krieg et al., 1995). Motívy CpG sa nachádzajú v očakávanej frekvencii v bakteriálnej DNA, ale sú oveľa menej časté v DNA stavovcov (LipLord et al., 1998; Pisetsky, 1998). Motívy CpG non-stavovcov (to je bakteriálne) nie sú navyše metylované, zatiaľ čo CpG sekvencie stavovcov metylované sú. Tieto rozdiely medzi bakteriálnou DNA a DNA stavovcov umožňujú stavovcom rozpoznávať DNA non-stavovcov ako nebezpečný signál.The immune system recognizes lower organisms including bacteria, probably due to structural and sequence differences between the pathogen and the host DNA. The target is particularly short DNA segments derived from non-vertebrate animals or in the form of short synthetic ODNs containing unmethylated cytosine-guanine dinucleotides (CpG) in a particular base context (Krieg et al., 1995). CpG motifs are found at the expected frequency in bacterial DNA, but are much less common in vertebrate DNA (LipLord et al., 1998; Pisetsky, 1998). In addition, non-vertebrate CpG motifs (i.e., bacterial) are not methylated, while vertebrate CpG sequences are methylated. These differences between bacterial DNA and vertebrate DNA allow vertebrates to recognize non-vertebrate DNA as a dangerous signal.
Prirodzené DNA obsahujúce CpG, ODN, rovnako tak ako tiofosfátom substituované (zámena tiofosfátových rezíduí za fosfát) ODN obsahujúci CpG motívy (CpG-ODN) nie sú len silnými aktivátormi prolyferácie imunitných buniek a humorálnych imunitných odpovedí (Krieg et al., 1995), ale tiež stimulujú silné bunkové imunitné odpovede (prehľad v Lipford et al., 1998). DNA/ODN obsahujúce nemetylované CpG motívy môžu priamo aktivovať monocytové bunky (dendritické bunky, makrofágy) a B bunky. Prirodzené zabíjačské bunky nie sú pravdepodobne priamo aktivované, ale zodpovedajú na IL-12 odvodený z monocytov (interleukín 12) s veľkým zvýšením ich produkcie IFN-y (Chace et al., 1997). V dôsledku toho podporuje indukcia monocytov a NK buniek pomocou CpG DNA indukciu odpovedí Thl typu a rozvoj cytotoxických T buniek.Natural CpG-containing DNAs, ODNs as well as thiophosphate-substituted (replacement of thiophosphate residues with phosphate) ODNs containing CpG motifs (CpG-ODN) are not only potent activators of immune cell proliferation and humoral immune responses (Krieg et al., 1995), but also stimulate strong cellular immune responses (review in Lipford et al., 1998). DNA / ODN containing unmethylated CpG motifs can directly activate monocyte cells (dendritic cells, macrophages) and B cells. Natural killer cells are not likely to be directly activated, but respond to monocyte-derived IL-12 (interleukin 12) with a large increase in their IFN-γ production (Chace et al., 1997). As a result, induction of monocytes and NK cells by CpG DNA promotes the induction of Th1-type responses and the development of cytotoxic T cells.
Je známe, že ribonukleová kyselina založená na inozíne a cytozíne, ako je polyinozínová-poylcytidylová kyselina (poly I : C), podporuje Thl-špecifické imunitné odpovede. Je známe, že stimuluje makrofágy na produkciu cytokínov, ako sú IL-Ια a IL-12 (Manetti et al., 1995), je známa tiež ako účinný induktor interferónu prvého typu (Manetti et al., 1995) a účinný stimulátor NK buniek (Cavanauah et al.. 1996).It is known that ribosucleic acid based on inosine and cytosine, such as polyinosine-poylcytidylic acid (poly I: C), promotes Th1-specific immune responses. It is known to stimulate macrophages to produce cytokines such as IL--α and IL-12 (Manetti et al., 1995), also known as a potent inducer of type I interferon (Manetti et al., 1995) and potent NK cell stimulator (Cavanauah et al., 1996).
Tento účinok bol ale prísne obmedzený na ribonukleovú kyselinu obsahujúcu inozínové a cytidínové rezíduá (W098/16247).However, this effect was strictly limited to ribonucleic acid containing inosine and cytidine residues (WO98 / 16247).
Skúmania výskumníkov predkladaného vynálezu ukázali, že ODN obsahujúce nemetylované CpG motívy, ktoré aj keď účinne stimulujú imunitný systém, majú základné nevýhody, obzvlášť s ohľadom na špecifitu (vysoké pozadie) a indukciu vedľajších účinkov, ako je napríklad vysoká systemická tvorba TNF-a. Je známe, že vysoké systemické uvoľňovanie TNF-a spôsobuje syndróm toxického šoku, ktorý môže spôsobiť smrť postihnutých pacientov.Investigations by researchers of the present invention have shown that ODNs containing unmethylated CpG motifs, which, although effectively stimulating the immune system, have basic disadvantages, particularly with respect to specificity (high background) and induction of side effects, such as high systemic TNF-α production. It is known that high systemic release of TNF-α causes toxic shock syndrome, which can cause death of affected patients.
Preto je cieľom predkladaného vynálezu poskytnúť vhodné nové ODN, ktoré nemajú takéto drastické vedľajšie účinky ako ODN založené na CpG sekvenciách. Je preto ďalším cieľom znížiť vedľajšie účinky farmaceutických preparátov obsahujúcich známe ODN a poskytnúť bezpečné a účinné dobre tolerované farmaceutické preparáty s účinnými imunostimulačnými vlastnosťami, ktoré sú vhodné na vakcináciu živočíchov, obzvlášť cicavcov, vrátane človeka.It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide suitable novel ODNs that do not have such drastic side effects as ODNs based on CpG sequences. It is therefore a further object to reduce the side effects of pharmaceutical preparations containing known ODNs and to provide safe and efficacious well tolerated pharmaceutical preparations with effective immunostimulatory properties that are suitable for the vaccination of animals, especially mammals, including humans.

V súlade s tým je predmetom vynálezu použitie molekuly oligodeoxynukleovej kyseliny (ODN) majúcej štruktúru definovanú vzorcom (I)Accordingly, the invention provides the use of an oligodeoxynucleic acid (ODN) molecule having the structure defined by formula (I)
kde ktorýkoľvek substituent X je O alebo S;wherein any X is O or S;
ktorýkoľvek zo zvyškov NMP je 2'-deoxynukleozid-monofosfát alebo -monotiofosfát vybraný z deoxyadenozín-, deoxyguanozín-, deoxyinozín-, deoxycytozín-, deoxyuridín-, deoxytymidín-, 2-metyl-deoxyinozín-, 5-metyl-deoxycytozín-, deoxypseudouridín-, deoxyribosapurín-, 2-aminodeoxyribosapurín-, 6-S-deoxyguanín-, 2-dimetyldeoxyguanozín- alebo N-izopentenyldeoxyadenozín-monofosfátu alebo -monotiofosfátu,any of the NMP residues is 2'-deoxynucleoside monophosphate or -monothiophosphate selected from deoxyadenosine-, deoxyguanosine-, deoxyinosine-, deoxycytosine-, deoxyuridine-, deoxythymidine-, 2-methyl-deoxyinosine-, 5-methyl-deoxycytosine- , deoxyribosapurine, 2-aminodeoxyribosapurine, 6-S-deoxyguanine, 2-dimethyldeoxyguanosine or N-isopentenyldeoxyadenosine monophosphate or monothiophosphate,
NUC je 2'-deoxynukleozid vybraný z deoxyadenozín-, deoxyguanozín-, deoxyinozín-, deoxycytozín-, deoxyuridín-, deoxytymidín-, 2-metyldeoxyinozín-, 5-metyldeoxycytozín-, deoxypseudouridín-, deoxyribosapurín-, 2-aminodeoxyribosapurín-, 6-S-deoxyguanín-, 2-dimetyldeoxyguanozín- alebo N-izopentenyldeoxyadenozínu, a a b sú celé čísla od 0 do 100 výhradne, že a + b je číslo medzi 4 a 150,NUC is a 2'-deoxynucleoside selected from deoxyadenosine-, deoxyguanosine-, deoxyinosine-, deoxycytosine-, deoxyuridine-, deoxythymidine-, 2-methyldeoxyinosine-, 5-methyldeoxycytosine-, deoxypseudouridine-, deoxypyrosibine-, deoxyribosine-, deoxyrurosine, 6-deoxyurosine, -deoxyguanine-, 2-dimethyldeoxyguanosine- or N-isopentenyldeoxyadenosine, and b and are integers from 0 to 100 exclusively that a + b is a number between 4 and 150,
B a E sú bežné skupiny pre 5' alebo 3' konce molekúl nukleovej kyseliny, na výrobu imunostimulačnej farmaceutickej kompozície.B and E are common groups for the 5 'or 3' ends of the nucleic acid molecules to produce an immunostimulatory pharmaceutical composition.
Prekvapivo sa ukázalo, že ODN obsahujúce deoxyinozínové rezíduá (i-ODN) majú imunnostimulačný účinok porovnateľný, alebo v mnohých prípadoch dokonca lepší, ako ODN obsahujúce motívy CpG. Navyše ODN podľa predkladaného vynálezu produkujú špecifickejšie imunitné odpovede k danému antigénu alebo antigénnemu fragmentu ako CpG ODN. Navyše ODN podľa predkladaného vynálezu znížili indukciu nežiaducich vedľajších reakcií, obzvlášť, indukciu systémového TNF-α alebo IL-6.Surprisingly, it has been shown that ODNs containing deoxyinosine residues (i-ODNs) have an immunostimulatory effect comparable, or in many cases even better, than ODNs containing CpG motifs. In addition, the ODNs of the present invention produce more specific immune responses to a given antigen or antigenic fragment than a CpG ODN. In addition, the ODNs of the present invention reduced the induction of unwanted side reactions, in particular, the induction of systemic TNF-α or IL-6.
Zatiaľ čo určité imunnostimulačné účinky boli opísané pre RNA molekuly obsahujúce RNA molekuly, ako sú napríklad poly-IC alebo molekuly zmienené vo W098/16247, ukázalo sa prekvapivo, že molekuly deoxynukleovej kyseliny obsahujúcej rezíduá deoxyinozínu môžu byť dobrými imunnostimulačnými ODN.While certain immunostimulatory effects have been described for RNA molecules containing RNA molecules, such as poly-IC or the molecules mentioned in WO98 / 16247, it has surprisingly been found that deoxynucleic acid molecules containing deoxyinosine residues can be good immunostimulatory ODNs.
Navyše I-ODN podľa predkladaného vynálezu sú oproti ODN založených na špecifických motívoch CpG nezávislé od špecifického motívu alebo palindromickej sekvencie opísanej pre CpG oligonukleotidy (pozri napríklad EP 0 468 520 A2, W096/02555, W098/18810, W098/37919, WO 98/40100, W098/52581, W099/51259 a W099/56755, všetky začlenené tu ako referencie). Preto jedna skupina I-ODN podľa predkladaného vynálezu môže prednostne obsahovať Cl motív (a preto sú preferované formy predkladaných ODN opísané v týchto začlenených referenciách, kde jedno alebo viacero guanozínových rezíduí sú nahradené deoxyinozínovými rezíduami). Tento motív nie je potrebný pre svoju hlavnú imunnostimulačnú vlastnosť, pretože I-ODN s inozínom neumiestneným v Cl alebo IC kontexte majú imunnostimulačné vlastnosti tiež.In addition, the I-ODNs of the present invention are independent of the specific motif or palindromic sequence described for CpG oligonucleotides over ODNs based on specific CpG motifs (see, for example, EP 0 468 520 A2, WO96 / 02555, WO98 / 18810, WO98 / 37919, WO 98 / 40100, WO98 / 52581, WO99 / 51259 and WO99 / 56755, all incorporated herein by reference). Therefore, one group of I-ODNs of the present invention may preferably contain a Cl motif (and therefore preferred forms of the present ODNs are described in these incorporated references, where one or more guanosine residues are replaced by deoxyinosine residues). This motif is not necessary for its major immunostimulatory property since I-ODNs with inosine not located in the Cl or IC context have immunostimulatory properties as well.
I-ODN podľa predkladaného vynálezu je preto molekula DNA obsahujúca rezíduum deoxyinozínu, ktorá je prednostne poskytnutá v jednovláknovej forme.The I-ODN of the present invention is therefore a DNA molecule containing a deoxyinosine residue, which is preferably provided in single-stranded form.
I-ODN podľa predkladaného vynálezu môže byť izolovaná prostredníctvom rekombinantných metód alebo môže byť chemicky syntetizovaná, v druhom prípade môže I-ODN podľa predkladaného vynálezu obsahovať modifikované oligonukleotidy, ktoré môžu byť syntetizované s použitím štandardných chemických transformácií, ako sú napríklad metylfosfonáty alebo iné modifikované oligonukleotidy založené na fosfore, ako sú napríklad fosfotriestery, fosfoamidáty a fosforditioráty. Ďalšie modifikované oligonukleotidy bez fosforu môžu byť tiež použité (Stirchak et al., marec 17 (1989), 6139-6141), ale monofosfáty a monotiofosfáty sú prednostným 2' deoxynukleozid monofofátom na použitie v predkladanom vynáleze.The I-ODN of the present invention may be isolated by recombinant methods or may be chemically synthesized, in the latter case the I-ODN of the present invention may contain modified oligonucleotides that may be synthesized using standard chemical transformations such as methylphosphonates or other modified oligonucleotides phosphorus-based compounds such as phosphotriesters, phosphoamidates and phosphorothiorates. Other modified phosphorus-free oligonucleotides may also be used (Stirchak et al., March 17 (1989), 6139-6141), but monophosphates and monothiophosphates are preferred 2 'deoxynucleoside monophosphates for use in the present invention.
NMP z I-ODN podľa predkladaného vynálezu sú prednostne vybrané zo skupiny obsahujúcej deoxyadenozín-, deoxyguanozín-, deoxyinozín-, deoxycytozín-, deoxyuridín-, deoxytymidín-, 2-metyl-deoxyinozín-, 5-metyl-deoxycytozín-monofosfát alebo -monotiofosfát (ako je obvykle fosfátová alebo tiofosfátová skupina 5' deoxyribózy). Zatiaľ čo pre ODN založených na CpG motívoch je základom, že tento motív je nemetylovaný, toto nie je prekvapivo prípad ODN podľa predkladaného vynálezu, kde napríklad 2-metyl-deoxyinozínové alebo 5-metyl-deoxycytozínové rezíduá nemajú všeobecne žiadny negatívny účinok na imunnostimulačné vlastnosti ODN podľa predkladaného vynálezu. Alternatívne môžu byť prítomné na 2-pozícii ribózovej skupiny miesto 2-deoxyforom NMP tiež ďalšie obzvlášť inertné skupiny, ako sú napríklad -F, -NH2, -CH3, obzvlášť -CH3. -OH a SH skupiny sú ale vylúčené pre I-ODN podľa predkladaného vynálezu z umiestnenia v pozícii 2'-ribózy, obzvlášť ribózového rezídua pre inozín NMP.The NMPs of the I-ODNs of the present invention are preferably selected from the group consisting of deoxyadenosine, deoxyguanosine, deoxyinosine, deoxycytosine, deoxyuridine, deoxythymidine, 2-methyl-deoxyinosine, 5-methyl-deoxycytosine monophosphate (or monothiophosphate). such as the 5'-deoxyribose phosphate or thiophosphate group). While for CpG motif-based ODNs the basis is that this motif is unmethylated, this is not surprisingly the case with the ODN of the present invention where, for example, 2-methyl-deoxyinosine or 5-methyl-deoxycytosine residues generally have no negative effect on the immune-stimulatory properties of ODNs. according to the present invention. Alternatively, other particularly inert groups such as -F, -NH 2 , -CH 3 , especially -CH 3, may also be present at the 2-position of the ribose group instead of the 2-deoxyphor NMPs. However, the -OH and SH groups are excluded for the I-ODN of the present invention from being located at the 2'-ribose position, especially the ribose residue for the inosine NMP.
DÍžka ODN podľa predkladaného vynálezu je v rozmedzí štandardných ODN použitých podľa doterajších znalostí. Preto molekuly s celkovou dĺžkou pod 4 a nad 150 báz majú postupne sa znižujúci imunnostimulačný potenciál. Prednostné ODN obsahujú medzi 10 a 60 bázami, obzvlášť, medzi 15 a 40 bázami (nukleotidy), z čoho vyplýva a + b vo vzorci (I) je v týchto prednostných formách medzi 10 a 60 bázami, prednostne medzi 15 a 40 bázami.The ODN length of the present invention is within the range of standard ODNs used to date. Therefore, molecules with a total length below 4 and above 150 bases have a progressively decreasing immunostimulatory potential. Preferred ODNs comprise between 10 and 60 bases, in particular, between 15 and 40 bases (nucleotides), resulting in a + b in formula (I) in these preferred forms between 10 and 60 bases, preferably between 15 and 40 bases.
Zatiaľ čo molekuly ribonukleovej kyseliny obsahujúcej inozín a cytidín, ktoré sú v predchádzajúcich prácach opísané ako imunnostimulačné molekuly, sú veľké a relatívne nedefinované polynukleové kyseliny s molekulovými váhami oveľa nad 200 000 (komerčne dostupná polyinozínová-polycytidylová kyselina od spoločnosti Sigma Chemicals, má molekulovú váhu v rozmedzí 220 000 až 460 000 (aspoň 500 - 1 000 C+I rezíduí)). Molekuly podľa predkladaného vynálezu sú molekuly DNA, ktoré sú oveľa kratšie s dobre definovanou dĺžkou a zložením, a sú v produktoch vysoko reprodukovateľné.While the inosine-containing and cytidine-containing ribonucleic acid molecules described in the prior art as immunostimulatory molecules are large and relatively undefined polynucleic acids with molecular weights well above 200,000 (commercially available polyinosine-polycytidylic acid from Sigma Chemicals, it has a molecular weight in between 220 000 and 460 000 (at least 500-1 000 C + I residues)). The molecules of the present invention are DNA molecules that are much shorter with a well defined length and composition, and are highly reproducible in the products.
Ďalej je preferované, že deoxyinozín obsahujúci NMP z I-ODN podľa vzorca (I) je monotiofosfát s jedným alebo štyrmi atómami síry, a tiež že ďalšie NMP, obzvlášť všetky ďalšie NMP, sú prítomné ako nukleo4 zid monotiofosfáty, pretože takéto ODN majú vyššiu rezistenciu k nukleázam (je jasné pre predkladaný vynález, že termín „mono“ vo výraze „monotiofosfáty“ sa týka fosfátu, to je, že jedna fosfátová skupina (jeden atóm fosforu) je prítomná v každom NMP). Prednostne aspoň jeden atóm z Xi a X2 je S a aspoň jeden atóm z X3 a X4 je O v NMP podľa predkladaného vynálezu. X3 a X4 sú prednostne O. X3 môže byť (v dôsledku syntézy NMP) odvodené napríklad z fosfátovej skupiny alebo z 3-skupiny NMP ribózy).It is further preferred that the NMP-containing deoxyinosine of the I-ODN of formula (I) is a monothiophosphate with one or four sulfur atoms, and also that other NMPs, particularly all other NMPs, are present as nucleo4 zid monothiophosphates because such ODNs have higher resistance to nucleases (it is clear for the present invention that the term "mono" in the term "monothiophosphates" refers to phosphate, that is, one phosphate group (one phosphorus atom) is present in each NMP). Preferably, at least one of X 1 and X 2 is S and at least one X 3 and X 4 is O in the NMP of the present invention. X 3 and X 4 are preferably O. X 3 may (due to NMP synthesis) be derived, for example, from the phosphate group or from the 3-group of the NMP ribose).
ODN podľa predkladaného vynálezu prednostne obsahujú sekvenciu hhh wdi dhh h, nhh hhh wdi nhh hhh hhh wn, nhh wdi din hhh hdi ndi nh, nhh hhh wdi dhh hhh hhh wn alebo nhh wdi did hhh hdi ddi dh, kde akékoľvek n je 2' deoxynukleozid monofosfát alebo monotiofosfát vybraný zo skupiny obsahujúcej deoxyadenozín-, deoxyguanozín-, deoxyinozín-, deoxycytozín- alebo deoxytymidín-monofosfát, alebo -monotiofosfát, akékoľvek h je 2' deoxynukleozid monofosfát alebo monotiofosfát vybraný zo skupiny obsahujúcej deoxyadenozín-, deoxycytozín- alebo deoxytymidín-monofosfát, alebo monotiofosfát, i je deoxyinozín-monofosfát alebo -monotiofosfát, akékoľvek w je 2' deoxynukleozid monofosfát alebo monotiofosfát vybraný zo skupiny obsahujúcej deoxyadenozín- alebo deoxytymidín-monofosfát, alebo -monotiofosfát, a akékoľvek d je 2' deoxynukleozid monofosfát alebo monotiofosfát vybraný zo skupiny obsahujúcej deoxyadenozín-, deoxyguanozín- alebo deoxytymidín-monofosfát, alebo monotiofosfát.ODNs according to the present invention preferably comprise the sequence hhh wdi dhh h, nhh hhh wdi nhh hhh hhh wn, nhh wdi din hhh hdi nh nh, nhh hhh wdi dhh hhh hhh wn or nhh wdi did hhh hdi ddi dh, where any is a deoxynucleoside monophosphate or monothiophosphate selected from the group consisting of deoxyadenosine-, deoxyguanosine-, deoxyinosine-, deoxycytosine- or deoxythymidine monophosphate, or -monothiophosphate; , or monothiophosphate, i is deoxyinosine monophosphate or -monothiophosphate, any w is a 2 'deoxynucleoside monophosphate or monothiophosphate selected from the group consisting of deoxyadenosine or deoxythymidine monophosphate, or -monothiophosphate, and any d is 2' deoxynucleoside monophosphate or monophosphate containing deoxyadenosine-, deoxyguanosine- or deoxythymidine-monofo or monothiophosphate.
Ako je uvedené, nie je pre I-ODN podľa predkladaného vynálezu potrebný špecifický motív (ako je napríklad CpG alebo palindróm). ODN obsahujúce Cl motív sú ale preferované, takže v prednostnej forme obsahuje ODN podľa vzorca (I) aspoň jeden 2' deoxycytozín-monofosfát alebo monotiofosfát, 3'-priľahlý k 2' deoxyinozín-monofosfátu alebo -monotiofosfátu za vzniku 5'-CI 3'- motívu.As mentioned, a specific motif (such as CpG or palindrome) is not required for the I-ODN of the present invention. However, ODNs containing a Cl motif are preferred, so that in a preferred form, the ODN of formula (I) comprises at least one 2 'deoxycytosine monophosphate or monothiophosphate, 3'-adjacent to 2' deoxyinosine monophosphate or monothiophosphate to form 5'-CI 3 ' - motif.
Prednostné ODN podľa predkladaného vynálezu obsahujú jednu alebo viacej zo sekvencii gacitt, iacitt, gaictt, iaictt, kde a je deoxyadenozín-monofosfát alebo -monotiofosfát, g je deoxyguanozín-monofosfát alebo -monotiofosfát, a je deoxyinozín-monofosfát alebo -monotiofosfát, c je deoxycytozín-monofosfát alebo -monotiofosfát a t je deoxytymidín-monofosfát alebo -monotiofosfát.Preferred ODNs of the present invention comprise one or more of gacitt, iacitt, gaictt, iaictt, wherein a is deoxyadenosine monophosphate or -monothiophosphate, g is deoxyguanosine monophosphate or -monothiophosphate, and is deoxyinosine monophosphate or -monothiophosphate, -monophosphate or -monothiophosphate whether it is deoxythymidine monophosphate or -monothiophosphate.
I-ODN podľa predkladaného vynálezu sú obzvlášť vhodné na aplikáciu na farmaceutickom poli, napríklad na aplikáciu ako liek zvieraťu alebo človeku. Sú špecificky prispôsobené, aby účinkovali ako imunnostimulačná látka, obzvlášť vo vakcínovom prípravku alebo spolu s ním.The I-ODNs of the present invention are particularly suitable for application in the pharmaceutical field, for example, as an medicament to an animal or a human. They are specifically adapted to act as an immuno-stimulant, particularly in or with the vaccine formulation.
Preto sa predkladaný vynález tiež týka farmaceutického prípravku obsahujúceho ODN podľa predkladaného vynálezu.Therefore, the present invention also relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising an ODN of the present invention.
Pretože prednostný farmaceutický prípravok podľa predkladaného vynálezu je vakcínou, mal by tento prípravok obsahovať antigén namiesto ODN podľa predkladaného vynálezu. Potenciál tohto antigénu zvýšiť ochranu/imunitnú odpoveď očkovaného jedinca je silne zvýšený jeho kombináciou s ODN podľa predkladaného vynálezu, obzvlášť vplyvom ich imunnostimulačnej aktivity.Since the preferred pharmaceutical composition of the present invention is a vaccine, the composition should comprise an antigen instead of an ODN of the present invention. The potential of this antigen to enhance the protection / immune response of a vaccinated individual is strongly enhanced by its combination with the ODN of the present invention, particularly due to their immunostimulatory activity.
Vakcína môže obsahovať celý rad rôznych antigénov. Príklady antigénov sú usmrtené celé organizmy, ako sú napríklad inaktivované vírusy alebo baktérie, plesne, prvoky alebo dokonca nádorové bunky. Antigény sa môžu tiež skladať zo subfrakcií týchto organizmov/tkanív z proteínov, alebo v ich jednoduchšej forme z peptidov. Antigény môžu byť tiež rozpoznávané imunitným systémom vo forme glykozylovaných proteínov alebo peptidov a môžu tiež byť alebo obsahovať polysacharidy alebo lipidy. Môžu byť použité krátke peptidy, pretože napríklad cytotoxické T bunky (CTL) rozpoznávajú antigény vo forme krátkych obvykle 8-11 aminokyselín dlhých peptidov v spojení s hlavným histokompatibilným komplexom (MHC) (Rammensee et al., Immunogenetics 41, (1995), 178-228). B bunky rozpoznávajú dlhšie peptidy od zhruba 15 aminokyselín (Harrow et al., Cold Spring Harbor: Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, (1988)). Na rozdiel od epitopov T buniek môžu byť trojrozmerné štruktúry antigénov B buniek tiež dôležité na rozpoznávanie protilátkami. Na získanie trvalých antigén špecifických imunitných odpovedí sú užitočné na spustenie imunitných kaskád, ktoré zahŕňajú všetky potrebné bunky imunitného systému, adjuvantné látky. Adjuvantné látky primáme účinkujú, ale nie sú obmedzené na ich spôsob účinku, na takzvané antigén prezentujúce bunky (APC). Tieto bunky sa obvykle prvé stretávajú s antigénom(-énmi) s nasledujúcou prezentáciou spracovaného alebo nemodifikovaného antigénu imunitnému efektom. Úlohu môžu hrať tiež prechodné bunkové typy. Len efekto5 rové bunky s príslušnou špecifitou sú aktivované v produktívnej imunitnej odpovedi. Adjuvantná látka môže tiež lokálne zadržovať antigény a spolu injekčné podané ďalšie faktory. Navyše môže adjuvantná látka účinkovať ako chemoatraktant pre ďalšie imunitné bunky, alebo môže účinkovať lokálne a/alebo systematicky ako stimulujúca látka pre imunitný systém.The vaccine may contain a variety of different antigens. Examples of antigens are killed by whole organisms, such as inactivated viruses or bacteria, fungi, protozoa or even tumor cells. Antigens may also consist of subfractions of these organisms / tissues from proteins, or in simpler form, from peptides. Antigens may also be recognized by the immune system in the form of glycosylated proteins or peptides and may also be or contain polysaccharides or lipids. Short peptides may be used because, for example, cytotoxic T cells (CTLs) recognize antigens in the form of short usually 8-11 amino acids long peptides in association with the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) (Rammensee et al., Immunogenetics 41, (1995), 178- 228). B cells recognize longer peptides from about 15 amino acids (Harrow et al., Cold Spring Harbor: Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, (1988)). Unlike T cell epitopes, the three-dimensional structures of B cell antigens may also be important for antibody recognition. To obtain persistent antigen-specific immune responses, adjuvants are useful for triggering immune cascades that include all necessary cells of the immune system. Adjuvants act primarily, but are not limited to their mode of action, on so-called antigen-presenting cells (APCs). These cells usually first encounter the antigen (s) with the following presentation of the processed or unmodified antigen to the immune effect. Transient cell types can also play a role. Only effector cells of appropriate specificity are activated in a productive immune response. The adjuvant may also locally retain antigens and co-injected with other factors. In addition, the adjuvant may act as a chemoattractant for other immune cells, or may act locally and / or systematically as a stimulant for the immune system.
Podľa prednostnej formy sú ako antigény použité epitopy T buniek. Alternatívne môže byť preferovaná kombinácia epitopov T buniek a B buniek.According to a preferred embodiment, T cell epitopes are used as antigens. Alternatively, a combination of T cell epitopes and B cells may be preferred.
Antigény, ktoré majú byť použité v predkladaných prípravkoch, nie sú kritické. Podľa predkladaného vynálezu je možné samozrejme použiť tiež zmesi rôznych antigénov. Proteíny alebo peptidy odvodené z vírusového alebo bakteriálneho patogénu, alebo z plesní, alebo parazitov sú prednostne použité ako takéto antigény (zahŕňajúce derivatizované antigény alebo glykozylované, alebo lipidové antigény, polysacharidy alebo lipidy). Ďalším prednostným zdrojom antigénov sú nádorové antigény. Prednostné patogény sú vybrané zo skupiny obsahujúcej vírus ľudskej imunnodeficiencie (HIV), vírusy hepatitídy A a B, vírus hepatitídy C (HCV), vírus Rousovho sarkómu (RSV, vírus Epsteina Barrovej (EBV), vírus chrípky, rotavírus, Stafylokokus aureus, Chlamidia pneumoniae, Chalmydia trachomatis, Mycobaktérium tuberculosis, Streptokokus pneumoniae, Bacillus antracis, Vibrio cholerae, Plasmodium sp. (Pl. falciparum, Pl. vivax, etc./ Aspergillus sp. alebo Candida albicans. Antigény môžu byť tiež molekuly exprimované nádorovými bunkami (nádorové antigény). Derivačný proces môže zahŕňať purifikáciu špecifického proteínu z patogénnych/nádorových buniek, inaktiváciu patogénu, rovnako tak ako proteolytickú alebo chemickú derivatizáciu alebo stabilizáciu takého proteínu. Rovnakým spôsobom môžu byť tiež použité vo farmaceutickom prípravku podľa predkladaného vynálezu nádorové antigény (nádorové vakcíny) alebo autoimúnne antigény. S takými prípravkami môže byť uskutočnená nádorová vakcinácia alebo liečba autoimúnnych ochorení.The antigens to be used in the present compositions are not critical. Of course, mixtures of different antigens may also be used according to the present invention. Proteins or peptides derived from a viral or bacterial pathogen, or from fungi or parasites are preferably used as such antigens (including derivatized antigens or glycosylated, or lipid antigens, polysaccharides or lipids). Another preferred source of antigens is tumor antigens. Preferred pathogens are selected from the group consisting of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis A and B viruses, hepatitis C virus (HCV), Rous sarcoma virus (RSV, Epstein Barr virus (EBV), influenza virus, rotavirus, Staphylococcus aureus Chalmydia trachomatis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Bacillus antracis, Vibrio cholerae, Plasmodium sp. (Pl. Falciparum, Pl. Vivax, etc./ Aspergillus sp. Or Candida albicans. Antigens may also be molecules expressed by tumor cells). The derivative process may include purification of a specific protein from pathogenic / tumor cells, pathogen inactivation as well as proteolytic or chemical derivatization or stabilization of such a protein In the same way, tumor antigens (tumor vaccines) or autoimmune antigens may also be used in the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention. Tumor vaccination or treatment of autoimmune diseases may be performed with such formulations.
V prípade peptidových antigénov je v predkladanom vynáleze zahrnuté použitie peptidových mimitopov/agonistov/superagonistov/antagonistov alebo peptidov zmenených v určitých pozíciách bez ovplyvnenia imunologických vlastností non-peptidových mimitopov/agonistov/superagonistov/antagonistov (prehľadom v Sparbier a Walden, 1999). Peptidové antigény môžu tiež obsahovať predĺženie buď na karboxy, alebo na amino konci peptidového antigénu zjednodušujúce interakciu s polykationickou zlúčeninou(ami), alebo imunnostimulačnou zlúčeninou(ami). Na liečbu autoimúnnych ochorení môžu byť použité antagonisty na báze peptidov.For peptide antigens, the use of peptide mimitopes / agonists / superagonists / antagonists or peptides altered at certain positions without affecting the immunological properties of non-peptide mimitopes / agonists / superagonists / antagonists (reviewed in Sparbier and Walden, 1999) is included in the present invention. The peptide antigens may also comprise an extension at either the carboxy or amino terminus of the peptide antigen to facilitate interaction with the polycationic compound (s) or the immunostimulatory compound (s). Peptide-based antagonists can be used to treat autoimmune diseases.
Antigény môžu byť tiež derivatizované, aby obsahovali molekuly zvyšujúce prezentáciu antigénu a zacielenie antigénov k antigén prezentujúcim bunkám.Antigens may also be derivatized to include molecules that enhance antigen presentation and target antigens to antigen presenting cells.
V jednej forme vynálezu slúži farmaceutický prípravok na získanie tolerancie k proteínom alebo proteínovým fragmentom a peptidom, ktoré majú úlohu v autoimúnnych ochoreniach. Antigény použité v týchto formách slúžia na umožnenie tolerancie imunitného systému alebo na zníženie imunitných odpovedí proti epitopom majúcich úlohu v autoimúnnych procesoch.In one embodiment, the pharmaceutical composition serves to gain tolerance to proteins or protein fragments and peptides that play a role in autoimmune diseases. The antigens used in these forms serve to allow immune system tolerance or reduce immune responses against epitopes playing a role in autoimmune processes.
Prednostne farmaceutický prípravok podľa predkladaného vynálezu, obzvlášť vo forme vakcíny, ďalej obsahuje polykationický polymér, prednostne polykationický peptid, obzvlášť polyarginín, polylyzin alebo antimikrobiálny peptid.Preferably, the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention, especially in the form of a vaccine, further comprises a polycationic polymer, preferably a polycationic peptide, in particular a polyarginine, polylysine or an antimicrobial peptide.
Polykationická zlúčenina(y), ktorá má byť použitá podľa predkladaného vynálezu, môže byť akákoľvek polykationická zlúčenina, ktorá má charakteristický účinok podľa WO 97/30721. Prednostné polykationické zlúčeniny sú vybrané z bázických polypeptidov, organických polykatiónov, bázických polyaminokyselín alebo ich zmesí. Tieto polyaminokyseliny by mali mať dĺžku reťazca aspoň 4 aminokyselinové rezíduá (pozri: Tuftsin, ako je opísané v Goldman et al (1983)). Obzvlášť prednostné sú látky obsahujúce peptidické väzby, ako sú polylyzin, polyarginín a polypeptidy obsahujúce viac ako 20 %, obzvlášť viac ako 50 % bázických aminokyselín v rozmedzí viac ako 8, obzvlášť viac ako 20 aminokyselinových rezíduí alebo ich zmesí. Ďalšie prednostné polykatióny a ich farmaceutické prípravky sú opísané vo WO 97/30721 (napríklad polyetylénimíny) a WO 99/38528. Prednostne obsahujú tieto polypeptidy medzi 20 a 500 aminokyselinovými rezíduami, obzvlášť medzi 30 a 200 rezíduami.The polycationic compound (s) to be used according to the present invention may be any polycationic compound having the characteristic effect of WO 97/30721. Preferred polycationic compounds are selected from basic polypeptides, organic polycations, basic polyamino acids, or mixtures thereof. These polyamino acids should have a chain length of at least 4 amino acid residues (see: Tuftsin as described in Goldman et al (1983)). Particularly preferred are substances containing peptide bonds such as polylysine, polyarginine and polypeptides containing more than 20%, especially more than 50% basic amino acids in the range of more than 8, especially more than 20 amino acid residues or mixtures thereof. Other preferred polycations and their pharmaceutical compositions are described in WO 97/30721 (e.g. polyethyleneimines) and WO 99/38528. Preferably, these polypeptides comprise between 20 and 500 amino acid residues, especially between 30 and 200 residues.
Tieto polykationické zlúčeniny môžu byť produkované chemicky alebo rekombinantne, alebo môžu byť odvodené z prirodzených zdrojov.These polycationic compounds may be produced chemically or recombinantly, or may be derived from natural sources.
Kationické (poly)peptidy môžu byť tiež polykationické antibakteriálne mikrobiálne peptidy s vlastnosťami, ktoré sú prehľadne zhrnuté (Ganz a Lehrer, 1999; Hancock, 1999). Tieto (poly)peptidy môžu byť prokaryotického alebo rastlinného pôvodu, alebo môžu byť produkované chemicky alebo rekombinantne (Andreu a Rivas, 1998; Ganz a Lehrer, 1999; Simmaco et al., 1998). Peptidy môžu tiež patriť do triedy defenzínov (Ganz, 1999; Ganz a Lehrer, 1999). Sekvencie takých peptidov môžu byť napríklad nájdené v Antimikrobial Sequence Database na nasledujúcej intemetovej adrese:The cationic (poly) peptides may also be polycationic antibacterial microbial peptides with properties that are summarized (Ganz and Lehrer, 1999; Hancock, 1999). These (poly) peptides may be of prokaryotic or plant origin, or may be produced chemically or recombinantly (Andreu and Rivas, 1998; Ganz and Lehrer, 1999; Simmaco et al., 1998). The peptides may also belong to the class of defensins (Ganz, 1999; Ganz and Lehrer, 1999). For example, the sequences of such peptides can be found in the Antimicrobial Sequence Database at the following intemetal address:
http://www.bbcm.univ.trieste.it/~tossi/pagl.htmlhttp://www.bbcm.univ.trieste.it/~tossi/pagl.html
Takéto obranné peptidy hostiteľa, alebo tiež defenzívy, sú tiež prednostnou formou polykationického polyméru podľa predkladaného vynálezu. Všeobecne je ako polykationický polymér použitá zlúčenina umožňujúca ako koncový produkt aktiváciu (alebo zníženú reguláciu) adaptívneho imunitného systému prednostne sprostredkovanú pomocou APC (zahŕňajúcich dendritické bunky).Such host defense peptides, or defensive peptides, are also a preferred form of the polycationic polymer of the present invention. In general, a compound allowing the activation (or downregulation) of the adaptive immune system, preferably mediated by APC (including dendritic cells), is used as the end product.
Obzvlášť preferované na použitie ako polykationická látka v predkladanom vynáleze sú od catelicidínu odvodené antimikrobiálne peptidy alebo jeho deriváty (A 1416/2000, začlenené tu ako referencia), obzvlášť antimikrobiálne peptidy odvodené od cicavčieho catelicidínu, prednostne od ľudského, hovädzieho alebo myšacieho catelicidínu, alebo neuroaktívne zlúčeniny, ako je napríklad (ľudský) rastový hormón.Particularly preferred for use as a polycationic agent in the present invention are antimicrobial peptides or derivatives thereof (A 1416/2000, incorporated herein by reference), particularly antimicrobial peptides derived from mammalian catelicidin, preferably human, bovine or murine catelicactin, derived from catelicidin compounds such as (human) growth hormone.
Polykationické zlúčeniny odvodené z prirodzených zdrojov zahŕňajú HIV-REV alebo HIV-TAT (odvodené kationické peptidy, antennapedia peptidy, chitosán alebo iné deriváty chitínu), alebo iné peptidy odvodené z týchto peptidov alebo proteínov biochemickou alebo rekombinantnou produkciou. Ďalšie prednostné polykationické zlúčeniny sú catelín alebo príbuzné, alebo odvodené látky od catelínu. Napríklad myšací catelín je peptid, ktorý má aminokyselinovú sekvenciu NH2-RLAGLLRKGGEKIGEKLKKIGOKIKNFFQKLVPQPECOOH. Príbuzné látky odvodené od catelínu obsahujú celú, alebo časti sekvencie catelínu aspoň s 15 - 20 aminokyselinovými rezíduami. Derivácie môžu zahŕňať substitúciu alebo modifikáciu prirodzených aminokyselín, ktoré nie sú medzi 20 štandardnými aminokyselinami. Navyše môžu byť do takých catelínových molekúl vložené ďalšie kationické rezíduá. Je preferované, aby tieto catelínové molekuly boli skombinované s antigénom a imunogénom ODN podľa predkladaného vynálezu. Prekvapivo sa ale ukázalo, že tieto catelínové molekuly sú účinné tiež ako adjuvantné látky pre antigén bez pridania ďalších adjuvantných látok. Je preto možné použiť takéto catelínové molekuly ako účinné adjuvantné látky v očkovacích prípravkoch s alebo bez ďalších imunnoaktivačných látok.Polycationic compounds derived from natural sources include HIV-REV or HIV-TAT (derived cationic peptides, antennapedia peptides, chitosan or other chitin derivatives), or other peptides derived from these peptides or proteins by biochemical or recombinant production. Other preferred polycationic compounds are cateline or related, or derivative of cateline. For example, murine cateline is a peptide having the amino acid sequence NH 2 -RLAGLLRKGGEKIGEKLKKIGOKIKNFFQKLVPQPECOOH. Catelin-related substances include all or parts of the catelin sequence with at least 15-20 amino acid residues. Derivatives may include substitution or modification of natural amino acids that are not among the 20 standard amino acids. In addition, other cationic residues may be introduced into such cateline molecules. It is preferred that these catelin molecules are combined with the antigen and the immunogen ODN of the present invention. Surprisingly, however, it has been shown that these catelin molecules are also effective as adjuvants for the antigen without the addition of other adjuvants. It is therefore possible to use such catelin molecules as active adjuvants in vaccine formulations with or without other immunoactivating agents.
Ďalšia prednostná polykationická látka na použitie podľa predkladaného vynálezu je syntetický peptid obsahujúci aspoň 2 KLK motívy oddelené spájacou časťou zo 3 až 7 hydrofóbnych aminokyselín (A 1789/2000, začlenené tu ako referencia).Another preferred polycationic agent for use in the present invention is a synthetic peptide comprising at least 2 KLK motifs separated by a 3 to 7 hydrophobic amino acid linker (A 1789/2000, incorporated herein by reference).
Je veľmi prekvapivé, že imunostimulačný účinok farmaceutického prípravku podľa predkladaného vynálezu bol významne vyšší, ako mohlo byť očakávané zo súčtu účinkov každej jednotlivej zložky alebo dokonca súčtu účinkov ODN alebo polykatiónu s antigénom.It is very surprising that the immunostimulatory effect of the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention was significantly higher than could be expected from the sum of the effects of each individual component or even the sum of the effects of ODN or polycation with the antigen.
B a E vo vzorci (I) sú bežné skupiny pre 5' a/alebo 3' konce molekúl nukleovej kyseliny. Príklady takých skupín sú jednoducho dostupné pre osoby pohybujúce sa v odbore (pozri napríklad „Oligonucleotides and Analogues - A Practical Approach“ (1991), ed. Eckstein, Oxford University Press). Pre I-ODN podľa predkladaného vynálezu B a/alebo E sú prednostne vybrané nezávisle z -H, -CH3, -COCH3, -OH, -CHO, fosfátové, tifosfátové, sulfátové alebo tiosulfátové skupiny, alebo fosfoalkylové skupiny, obzvlášť s dĺžkou alkylu C]-C6 a/alebo s terminálnou aminoskupinou (aminoskupina môže byť napríklad použitá na ďalšie označenie I-ODN podľa predkladaného vynálezu, napríklad -PO4(CH2)n-NH2 alebo -PO4-(CH2)n-NH-značka). Obzvlášť preferované ako B sú nukleozidy, obzvlášť zmienené 2'deoxynukleotidy (to je bez fosfátovej alebo tiofosfátovej skupiny). Alternatívne môžu tieto skupiny tiež obsahovať väzbové skupiny k iným molekulám, obzvlášť nosičské molekuly alebo značky. V takých formách ODN, kde ODN sú naviazané na pevné povrchy alebo častice, alebo značky, sú tieto povrchy, častice, značky atď. tiež časťou B a/alebo E skupín.B and E in formula (I) are common groups for the 5 'and / or 3' ends of the nucleic acid molecules. Examples of such groups are readily available to persons skilled in the art (see, for example, "Oligonucleotides and Analogues - A Practical Approach" (1991), ed. Eckstein, Oxford University Press). For the I-ODNs of the present invention B and / or E are preferably selected independently from -H, -CH 3 , -COCH 3 , -OH, -CHO, phosphate, triphosphate, sulfate or thiosulfate groups, or phosphoalkyl groups, especially of length C 1 -C 6 alkyl and / or with a terminal amino group (for example, the amino group may be used to further denote the I-ODN of the present invention, for example -PO 4 (CH 2 ) n -NH 2 or -PO 4 - (CH 2 ) n -NH -brands). Particularly preferred as B are nucleosides, especially the 2'deoxynucleotides mentioned (i.e., without a phosphate or thiophosphate group). Alternatively, these groups may also contain linking groups to other molecules, especially carrier molecules or labels. In those forms of ODNs where ODNs are attached to solid surfaces or particles, or labels, these are surfaces, particles, labels, and the like. also part of the B and / or E groups.
Samozrejme akákoľvek (soľ) forma alebo tautoméme formy molekúl podľa vzorca (I) sú zahrnuté v tomto vzorci (I).Of course, any (salt) form or tautomeric form of the molecules of formula (I) are included in this formula (I).
Farmaceutický prípravok podľa predkladaného vynálezu môže ďalej zahŕňať ďalšie aktívne zložky, farmaceutický aktívne látky, obzvlášť látky, ktoré sú použiteľné v spojení s vakcínami. Prednostné formy takých ďalších aktívnych zložiek sú cytokíny, protizápalové látky, antimikrobiálne látky alebo ich kombinácie.The pharmaceutical composition of the present invention may further comprise other active ingredients, pharmaceutically active agents, especially agents that are useful in conjunction with vaccines. Preferred forms of such additional active ingredients are cytokines, anti-inflammatory agents, antimicrobials or combinations thereof.
Farmaceutický prípravok podľa predkladaného vynálezu môže samozrejme ďalej obsahovať pomocné látky, obzvlášť farmaceutický prijateľný nosič, pufŕačné látky, stabilizačné látky alebo ich kombinácie.The pharmaceutical composition of the present invention may, of course, further comprise excipients, in particular a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, buffering agents, stabilizing agents or combinations thereof.
Relatívne množstvo zložiek v predkladanom farmaceutickom prípravku je vysoko závislé od nutnosti jednotlivého antigénu a od zvieraťa/človeka, ktorému by mal byť prípravok aplikovaný. Preto farmaceutický prípravok podľa predkladaného vynálezu prednostne obsahuje jeden alebo viacej ODN podľa predkladaného vynálezu, prednostne 1 pg až 10 g, prednostne 1 ng až 1 g, prednostnejšie 1 000 ng až 10 mg, obzvlášť 10 mg až 1 mg. Antigén, rovnako tak ako polykationický polymér môžu byť aplikované v podobných dávkach, preferované je rozmedzie 1 až 10 000 mg antigénu a 0,1 až 1 000 mg polykatiónu na očkovanie.The relative amount of the ingredients in the present pharmaceutical composition is highly dependent on the need for an individual antigen and on the animal / human to whom the composition should be administered. Therefore, the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention preferably comprises one or more ODNs of the present invention, preferably 1 µg to 10 g, preferably 1 µg to 1 g, more preferably 1000 µg to 10 mg, especially 10 mg to 1 mg. The antigen as well as the polycationic polymer can be applied at similar dosages, preferably a range of 1 to 10,000 mg of antigen and 0.1 to 1,000 mg of polycation for vaccination.
Predkladané prípravky môžu byť aplikované pacientovi, napríklad kandidátovi očkovania, v účinných množstvách, napríklad týždne, dvakrát týždne, alebo v mesačných intervaloch. Pacienti, ktorí majú byť liečení predkladanými prípravkami, môžu byť tiež očkovaní opakovane alebo len raz. Prednostné použitie predkladaného vynálezu je aktívna imunizácia, obzvlášť človeka alebo zvierat bez ochrany proti špecifickému antigénu.The present compositions may be administered to a patient, for example, a vaccine candidate, in effective amounts, for example, weekly, twice weekly, or at monthly intervals. Patients to be treated with the present compositions may also be vaccinated repeatedly or only once. A preferred use of the present invention is the active immunization, especially of a human or animal without protection against a specific antigen.
Spôsob aplikácie predkladaného prípravku nie je kriticky dôležitý, vhodná je napríklad podkožná, intramuskuláma, intradermálna alebo transdermálna injekcia, rovnako tak ako perorálna aplikácia.The method of administration of the present composition is not critical, for example subcutaneous, intramuscular, intradermal or transdermal injection, as well as oral administration.
Je tiež možné aplikovať predkladaný prípravok oddelene, napríklad injekciou imunostimulujúcej látky oddelene od prípravku s antigénom/polykatiónom. Predkladaný vynález preto tiež zahŕňa súpravu obsahujúcu prípravok obsahujúci antigén a polykationický polymér ako jednu zložku a prípravok obsahujúci imunostimulačnú a chemotaktickú látku ako druhú zložku.It is also possible to administer the present composition separately, for example by injecting the immunostimulating agent separately from the antigen / polycation preparation. Therefore, the present invention also encompasses a kit comprising a composition comprising an antigen and a polycationic polymer as one component and a composition comprising an immunostimulatory and a chemotactic agent as a second component.
Zložky môžu byť aplikované na rovnaké miesto alebo v rovnaký čas, ale aplikácie na rôzne miesta alebo v rôznych časoch počas rôzne časové obdobia sú tiež možné. Je tiež možné meniť systémové a lokálne aplikácie prípravku alebo zložiek.The components may be applied to the same site or at the same time, but application to different sites or at different times over different time periods is also possible. It is also possible to vary the systemic and local application of the formulation or ingredients.
Detaily predkladaného vynálezu sú opísané nasledujúcimi príkladmi uskutočnenia vynálezu a obrázkami, ale vynález nimi nie je samozrejme obmedzený.The details of the present invention are described by the following examples and figures, but the invention is not, of course, limited thereto.

Príklady uskutočnenia vynálezuDETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Vo všetkých experimentoch boli použité tiofosfátom substituované ODN (s tiofosfátovými rezíduami substituujúcimi fosfát, odtiaľto nazývané „tiofosfátom substituované oligonukleotidy“), pretože takéto ODN majú vyššiu nukleázovú rezistenciu (Ballas et al., 1996; Krieg et al., 1995; Parronchi et al., 1999).Thiophosphate substituted ODNs (with phosphate substituting thiophosphate residues, hence called "thiophosphate substituted oligonucleotides") were used in all experiments because such ODNs have higher nuclease resistance (Ballas et al., 1996; Krieg et al., 1995; Parronchi et al. , 1999).

V deň 0 bol myšiam injekčné aplikovaný do každej zadnej labky celkový objem 100 ml (50 ml na labku) obsahujúci zmienené zlúčeniny. Zvieratá boli usmrtené 4 dni po injekcii a boli odobrané popliteálne lymfatické uzliny. Lymfatické uzliny boli pretlačené cez 70 mm bunkové sito a premyté dvakrát médiom DMEM (Gibco BRL) obsahujúcim 5 % fetálne teľacie sérum (FCS, spoločnosť Sigma). Bunky boli upravené na 3 x 106 buniek/ml v DMEM/5 %/FCS. Analýza ELISPOT IFNg bola uskutočnená v triplete, ako bolo opísané (Miyahira et al., 1995). Táto metóda je široko používaným postupom umožňujúcim kvantifikáciu antigén špecifických T buniek. Lymfocyty boli stimulované ex vivo s médiom slúžiacim ako kontrola, peptidom OVA257.264 alebo Concavalínom A (Con A). Škvrny reprezentujúce jednotlivé IFN-g produkujúce T bunky boli spočítané a počet škvŕn pozadia bol odčítaný zo všetkých vzoriek. Vysoký počet detekovaných škvŕn po stimulácii s Con A (dáta nie sú uvedené) ukazujú na dobrý stav použitých lymfocytov. Pre každú experimentálnu skupinu myší sú počty škvŕn/106 buniek ilustrované na obrázku 1.On day 0, mice were injected into each hindpaw with a total volume of 100 ml (50 ml per paw) containing the compounds. Animals were sacrificed 4 days after injection and popliteal lymph nodes were collected. The lymph nodes were passed through a 70 mm cell sieve and washed twice with DMEM medium (Gibco BRL) containing 5% fetal calf serum (FCS, Sigma). Cells were adjusted to 3 x 10 6 cells / ml in DMEM / 5% / FCS. ELISPOT IFNg analysis was performed in a triplet as described (Miyahira et al., 1995). This method is a widely used procedure for quantifying antigen-specific T cells. Lymphocytes were stimulated ex vivo with control medium, peptide OVA 257 . 26 4 or Concavalin A (Con A). Spots representing individual IFN-γ producing T cells were counted and the number of background spots was subtracted from all samples. The high number of spots detected after stimulation with Con A (data not shown) indicate the good state of the lymphocytes used. For each experimental group of mice, spot numbers / 10 6 cells are illustrated in Figure 1.
Jednu hodinu po injekcii bola odobraná krv zo žily chvosta a bolo pripravené sérum na určenie indukcie systémového TNF-a s použitím stanovenia ELISA (obrázok 2).One hour after injection, blood was collected from the tail vein and serum was prepared to determine the induction of systemic TNF-α using an ELISA assay (Figure 2).

V deň 0 bol myšiam injekčné aplikovaný do každej zadnej labky celkový objem 100 ul (50 ul na labku) obsahujúci zmienené zlúčeniny. 24 dní po injekcii bolo odobrané sérum, ktoré bolo vyšetrené stanovením ELISA na prítomnosť OVA špecifických protilátok. Tieto výsledky ukazujú, že injekcia OVA v kombinácii s oligo-dlC a pR zvyšuje produkciu OVA špecifických IgG protilátok v porovnaní s injekciou OVA s každou so substancií samotnou (obrázok 13A, B). Zaujímavé je, že titre IgG2a aj IgGl boli zvýšené po jedinej injekcii OVA s oligo-dIC/pR, čo ukazuje na podiel Thl aj Th2 buniek. Ale po 115 dňoch boli stále ešte detekovateľné len zvýšené hladiny IgG2 v sére myší po injekcii OVA a oligo-dIC/pR.On day 0, mice were injected into each hindpaw with a total volume of 100 µl (50 µl per paw) containing the compounds. 24 days after injection, serum was collected and examined by ELISA for the presence of OVA specific antibodies. These results show that injection of OVA in combination with oligo-dlC and pR increases the production of OVA specific IgG antibodies compared to injection of OVA with each substance alone (Figure 13A, B). Interestingly, both IgG2a and IgG1 titers were increased after a single injection of OVA with oligo-dIC / pR, indicating both Th1 and Th2 cells. However, only elevated IgG2 levels in the serum of mice after OVA and oligo-dIC / pR injection were still detectable after 115 days.
Tieto dáta demonštrujú, že kombinovaná injekcia OVA s oligo-dlC a pR zvyšuje OVA špecifickú humorálnu odpoveď. Táto odpoveď je charakterizovaná produkciou izotypov protilátok indukovaných Thl aj Th2 bunkami v časnej fáze, ale neskôr hlavne protilátkami indukovanými Thl bunkami.These data demonstrate that the combined injection of OVA with oligo-dlC and pR enhances the OVA specific humoral response. This response is characterized by the production of isotypes of antibodies induced by both Th1 and Th2 cells in the early phase, but later mainly by antibodies induced by Th1 cells.
